How’s the Pet?
Children and dogs should not be allowed access to batteries because they put everything in their mouths, even stuff that isn’t edible. A troublesome pet ate the batteries in this person’s radio, as they discovered when they took it in for repair. But that wasn’t all they learned about the extent of the damage.
The technician informed the clueless client that all it needed was a fresh pair of batteries. Also, they should’ve taken their poor pet to the vet. It might have needed to get its stomach pumped. After all, it nearly chewed through a freaking battery!
